Synchro Campionships

It was fun but a little dissapointing for all of our team. It seems that everyone is passing around some nasty virus or something and half the team was sick. Megan and Kylee had been sick ealier in the week so they were OK by meet day. Megan's partner, Emma, came long enough to do there Duet routine and then was taken home by her dad and it was reported later, by her siblings, that she puked when she got home. Poor kid, she really didn't look very good. One of Kylee's Trio was in the hospital due to dehydration along with her twin sister who is also on the team. There were suppose to be two big team routines from our team with 7 to 8 swimmers each. Kylee's team routine ended up with 4 and had to do there's early so that 2 or the members could leave due to other commitments so they didn't even get a chance to practice. Megan's team routine had only 3 so they grabbed Kylee and one other older girl and taught them the routine in 15 minutes. Kylee's Trio ended up in last place because they dock points for having missing swimmer, which was really disappointing to her since they came in first at the qualifying meet. Megan and Emma's duet beat one other team but it was Emma's sister's team who was missing her partner, so it really didn't seem fair. There team routines ended up being last and second to last. What a difference a week can make, the whole team did excellent at the qualifying meet last Saturday. Oh well, there is always next year and these things happen. I really hope everyone who is sick will be alright and get better soon.
